Genworth Financial Valuation

No matter how good a company is, if the price that you pay to buy it is too high, you won't make much money. These valuation metrics should give you a sense of reasonable prices, but be careful with them. Always seek to understand why a valuation is changing over time.

Price Multiples

Price Multiples show how much you get for the price you pay. They can fluctuate drastically over time. Looking at price multiples over time and comparing to those of competitors will help to triangulate a reasonable valuation.

Enterprise Valuation

$BAC wants to go green here... Like $GNW as well for financials. Plays well off of $AIG's success once the negative cloud is lifted
